If you wanted to know”were the players playing for Gerrard?” You’ve got your answer, superb application, fighting for every ball, charging on to make themselves available, shooting on sight, recycling the ball instantly. Wow, two fingers up to Gerrard and his relentless swagger merchants.

Tbf a lot easier to be high intensity when you drop mcginn, Coutinho and even ramsey.

This surely can’t be right? Mental if so 

This is true... Shows how awful a fit Gerrard was for us.  Also shows Lange & Smith's vision for how they'd all play together.

We need to never allow a shiny new manager to completely scrap club playing philosophy again.

It's all a bit mad this. We look so good and so comfortable.

Brentford are awful though and giving us a lot of space. Be interesting to see how we fare against tougher pressing opponents.

But still, we just look so much better it's crazy.

Gimme the scoop people. Is this new guy bounce or is he just a very underrated coach who didn’t really have a voice under smith and Gerrard . His CV is actually quite impressive. 

It’s just our players not being asked to play a stupid system that doesn’t work, and players who’ve been crap have been dropped.
